Relieving Your Tooth Sensitivity

Posted September 4, 2017.

Do you have sensitive teeth? This can be rather irritating, especially because it makes it tough to consume your favorite foods and drinks. Did you know there is a solution? Any of the following things may help you:

– Try using desensitizing toothpaste. You can find it at your local grocery stores and drugstores. This toothpaste has special chemicals and compounds that block the pathways leading to your tooth nerves. You’ll likely need to use it consistently to feel the relief you seek.

– Come and visit Steelcroft Dental for a fluoride treatment. We usually offer this after a routine dental cleaning and exam. We will apply the fluoride to your teeth and let it do its magic on your tooth enamel, strengthening its fortifications and decreasing your tooth sensitivity.

– Sometimes dental treatments, like crowns and bonding, are what is needed to treat your tooth sensitivity. Talk to Dr. Vinutha Kupperi about whether this may be right for you.
